How to Make Beautiful Flower Arrangements

I need the glue to dry clear and look just like water when it’s in a glass. Does anyone know of a brand or type of glue that can do this?

If you’re looking for "artificial water" that’s clear and will hold the stems of plastic flowers, for example, in position in a clear vase, you’ll want the kind of clear resin called "floral setting resin." In the U.S. various brands of it can be purchased in the floral depts of craft stores like Michaels, or in many floral shops… or online.

Here’s just one brand:

You can find more info, and more brand names and info on using them, for that kind of resin on this page:

P.S. If you’re really looking for a "glue" that dries or cures clear just to do spot gluing, you could try 2-part epoxy glues (Devcon’s 2-Ton 30 Min. Set sets up very clear), or E6000, or various "white glues," or acrylic medium, or clear "cements" in tubes, etc… depending on how strong and how flexible-inflexible you want the glue:

I’m not sure how to solve this problem. If someone could explain the steps I’d be very grateful!

"If you were planting 10 flowers in a row and 5 of them were red, 3 of them were yellow, and 2 of them were purple, in how many different looking arrangements could the 10 flowers be arranged?"

Dear fournier,

There are ten positions in the row you are planting. Imagine that you decide where to plant the red flowers first, and that flowers are not distinguished by any other features. Then there are C(10, 5) different placements possible for these five flowers, where C(n,k) = n! / [k! (n - k)!] (known as the binomial coefficient, which is the number of ways that exactly k items can be chosen from a set of n items). This leaves five positions for the other flowers. If you decide where to plant the yellow flowers next, then there are C(10 – 5, 3) = C(5, 3) different placements for these flowers, given the positions of the red flowers. The remaining purple flowers go into the last two positions, so there is only one placement left for them, given the positions of the red and yellow flowers. (You can express this mathematically as C(10 – 5 – 3, 2) = C(2, 2) = 1.) If you multiply together these ways of placing each color of flower, then you obtain the total number of different-looking arrangements:

C(10, 5) C(10 – 5, 3) C(10 – 5 – 3, 2)
= C(10, 5) C(5, 3) C(2, 2)
= (10! / [5! (10 - 5)!]) (5! / [3! (5 - 3)!]) (2! / [2! (2 - 2)!])
= (10! / [5! 5!]) (5! / [3! 2!]) (2! / [2! 0!])
= 10! / (5! 3! 2!)
= (10)(9)(8)(7)(6) / [(3)(2)(2)]
= (10)(9)(4)(7)
= 2520.

Notice that there is no requirement that you decide to start by placing the red flowers. For instance, if you begin with the yellow flowers, then the purple, and finally the red, the total number of different-looking arrangements is the same:

C(10, 3) C(10 – 3, 2) C(10 – 3 – 2, 5)
= C(10, 3) C(7, 2) C(5, 5)
= (10! / [3! 7!]) (7! / [2! 5!]) (5! / [5! 0!])
= 10! / (3! 2! 5!)
= 2520.

You have a rectangular flower garden. How many different ways can you arrange 24 flowers if you plant them in equal rows with at least 6 flowers in each row? There are 6 mums, 5 roses, and 13 violets.
Thanks to anyone who can help =]

it’s best to let your child try and figure this out. if it’s wrong, then they will learn. doing their homework for them isn’t any good. helping, yes. making sure it’s done, yes
let them show you how they are doing it and that might help
